Feelings Faces

I’ve used these feelings faces in storytime for years, so I figured that it was finally time to make a printable.

This version of “If You’re Happy and You Know It” is great for helping young learners express emotions. I use “feelings faces” to add a visual for the children. I pull each face out, one at a time, and ask “Can you guess what they are feeling?” Then we sing the corresponding verse.

I suggest printing them on cardstock and then taping them to jumbo popsicle sticks. Or you could laminate them, add velcro, and use them on your flannel board.

If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it, then your face with surely show it.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.

If you’re surprised and you know it, say “Oh my!”…
If you’re sad and you know it, rub your eyes “Boo hoo”…
If you’re scared and you know it, shiver and shake….
If you’re angry and you know it, stomp your feet…
If you’re silly and you know, make a funny face…
